Today, 1 July 2025, Europass celebrates an important milestone: the 20th Anniversary of this EU initiative, supporting job seekers, workers, learners and volunteers across Europe to understand and showcase their skills and qualifications in a transparent way.

The European Digital Credentials for Learning (EDC) are transforming the way qualifications and learning achievements are documented, awarded, shared, and verified across Europe. As an EDC implementer, your organisation, institution or project plays a crucial role in driving this change. To showcase your experience and achievements, we invite you to share your journey with the wider EDC and ELM community.

Europass and EURES are strengthening their connection, bringing jobseekers registered on Europass even closer to new opportunities! As of 31 March 2025, jobseeker accounts and the CV builder will no longer be available on the EURES portal. EURES job seekers were invited to transfer their CVs to Europass or to renew their profiles directly in Europass and seamlessly share them with EURES. 

The Council Recommendation on the validation of non-formal and informal learning recommends that all Member States should have validation arrangements. This report presents the status of implementation of validation arrangements in Estonia. 

Systematically promoting learning outcomes is a key principle in the EU policy agenda for education, training and employment.

Join our webinar 'Basics of European Digital Credentials for Learning' to get back to the building blocks and core benefits and aims of digital credentials. This informative session will introduce European Digital Credentials for Learning (EDCs), focussing both on their advantages and use as well and on the concrete steps to take to start creating and issuing them. This is a perfect first introduction to EDCs, so share this opportunity with your colleagues and expand their knowledge on digital credentials.
